This Sunday will take place the 14th day of La Liga between Real Madrid and Girona in Spain. Here are the absentees in Madrid.
Fifth consecutive trip for Real Madrid and after having put an end to the general poor dynamic by winning on the Olympiakos pitch, the Madrid club must also resume its march forward in La Liga, as explained by Xabi Alonso at a press conference.
A press point during which the coach recalled that “the group was united” despite everything that could be said about them, and which above all brought good news concerning Sunday’s trip.
Returns, an uncertain
To start with the good news: Xabi confirmed that Militao and Rüdiger would indeed be part of the group in Girona. Two returns which will do good for a rearguard which has suffered in recent matches, with 5 goals conceded in two matches.

Also, Franco Mastantuono is back and he has recovered well from his pubalgia. “He has been training for 10 days without any discomfort,” said the Real Madrid coach. Those around him confirmed to us on Friday that the sensations are good, finally, after several months without being 100%.
On the other hand, Carvajal and David Alaba are still absent, as is Dean Huijsen who has not yet recovered. At a press conference, Xabi Alonso did not give any indication of a possible return date. He also specified that for Raúl Asencio, we will have to wait to see his condition tomorrow since he was absent today due to gastro.
